CentOS - Aug 2016 - Can't connect trough SSH to a new fresh CentOS 7 minimal server

I have installed a new CentOS 7 minimal virtual machine in Vmware
Workstation. I have disabled the firewall by running:

*systemctl disable firewalld* => this one for disable it permanently (I
don't need it since it's a VM for development)
*systemctl stop firewalld* => this one for stop the service

I have set SELinux to be permissive.

SSH is up and running as the output from: *service sshd status*

But I can't connect trough SSH, I am missing something?
Thanks in advance

A few things you might try:

1. Verify ssh is listening:

netstat -antp | grep :22 | grep -i listen

2. Verify you can ssh locally:

ssh localhost

3. Try to telnet to ssh port:

telnet <ipaddr> 22

4. run nmap against the ipaddress to verify port 22 is seen.

Hope this helps.

Regards,

Monty

Ohhh it was my bad, this VM has two interfaces and the one I was trying to
reach was down so NEVER it will respond. Anyway thanks for the time

If you give -l instead of -a, it only shows listening sockets.

Just a useful hint - it was ages before I discovered that!
